The Celtic Tigers

The Celtic Tigers Newsletter is a student-driven initiative created by and for aspiring finance professionals in Irish universities. Each month, we connect with alumni now working in top investment banks across the globe to uncover real, unfiltered insights about careers in finance. We ask the questions students actually want answered—about breaking in, standing out, and thriving in a competitive industry. In the next section, you’ll find candid responses from Irish graduates who share their journeys, challenges, and advice. Whether you're exploring investment banking or actively preparing for applications, this newsletter is designed to bring you closer to the world you’re aiming for.
